Juxtapoz stopped by EL MAC and RETNA's new mural on 7th and Park View near downtown Los Angeles yesterday morning on an unseasonably warm day. We tried to catch RETNA and MAC in action, but it was better to sit and shoot some photos and cause the neighbors to stop and check out the mural as well. More views after the jump . . .
